Just a little over three weeks after celebrating his 70th birthday at Madison Square Garden<\/a> with help from surprise guest Peter Frampton, Billy Joel<\/a> returned to the New York arena on Sunday evening and brought Def Leppard\u2019s Joe Elliott along for the ride. He came out onto the stage right after \u201cShe\u2019s a Woman\u201d to sing his 1987 classic \u201cPour Some Sugar on Me.\u201d Check out video of the moment right here. They previously did the song at Boston\u2019s Fenway Park in August 2018.<\/p>\n

Joe Elliott is the latest in a very long line of guests that have played with Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden since he began his monthly residency there in 2014. Previous guest have included Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon, Miley Cyrus, John Fogerty, Sting, John Mayer, Tony Bennett and John Mellencamp. \u201cThat\u2019s what\u2019s good about playing in New York City,\u201d Joel told Rolling Stone<\/em> last month. \u201cSomebody\u2019s always in town while you\u2019re in town and if they ask, \u2018Can we come to the show?\u2019 I say, \u2018Yeah bring your ax.\u2019 If they don\u2019t want to, they don\u2019t have to, but they\u2019re always invited.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joel is the first artist to ever play a monthly residency at a venue as large as Madison Square Garden. Every show is a virtual sell-out and in the summer he goes out and plays stadiums all over America. Earlier this year, he became the first musician to get a \u201cstadium residency\u201d when he signed a deal with Philadelphia\u2019s Citizens Bank Park to play there every year. He later signed a similar deal with Fenway Park.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know if I\u2019d go see me in a stadium, but a lot of people do,\u201d he told Rolling Stone<\/em> last month.<\/a> \u201cI\u2019ll be sitting in the stadium looking out at 30,000, 40,000, 50,000 people, thinking, \u2018What the hell are they all doing here? Why now?\u2019 I guess, in a way, I\u2019m an anachronism. There aren\u2019t that many of me left. There\u2019s a rarity to it, which gives it value.\u201d<\/p>\n
